Magnetic Reaction Wheels
Maglev reaction wheels with zero bearings cut micro-vibration by 20× — purpose-built for laser comm and high-resolution imaging, scalable from 1 Nms.
95% vibration reduction · TRL 5 · Tested at NASA
Magma Space's intelligent controls overcome stability and autonomy bottlenecks with magnetically levitated hardware and AI-driven data fusion — unlocking missions previously thought impossible.
Magma replaces ball-bearing reaction wheels — the dominant source of micro-vibration — with frictionless magnetic levitation and an autonomy layer that learns across the fleet.

95% vibration reduction · TRL 5 · Tested at NASA
Mounted between bus and payload with zero contact points — under 5% transmissibility up to 500 Hz while drawing less than 40 W.
50% sharper images · 3× optical comm data rates
Maglev CMGs deliver rapid slewing and ultra-stable settling, giving spacecraft the torque to maneuver fast and lock on target instantly.
10× higher agility · Ultra-stable settling
A GNC layer with adaptive, self-optimizing control and constellation-level learning — processing onboard up to 500× faster.
500× faster processing · ML Data Fusion
Over $200B in precision-driven applications remain locked by instability. Blurred imagery, degraded communication throughput, and limited autonomy are accepted as the cost of doing business in space. Magma is building the platform to change that.
Work With UsWherever pointing accuracy, stability and agility are the bottleneck, Magma's control platform expands what missions can achieve.
